Traffic Order S367 - Addison Avenue

Overview

The Council has received requests from residents for secure cycle parking. Residents living in flats experience particular difficulty storing bicycles at home and much existing cycle parking on-street does not offer high levels of security. The proposal is to convert the northernmost three metres (10ft) of solo visitor motorcycle bay (hours of control Monday to Friday 8.30am to 6.30pm and Saturday 8.30am to 1.30pm) to a cycle hangar bay outside the flank wall of 168 Holland Park Avenue, situated in Addison Avenue.

Each on-street cycle hangar unit provides space for six residents’ bicycles. Similar bike hangar spaces in the borough are currently rentable at a cost of £72 per year and if this unit went ahead, the spaces would be available for rent on a first come, first served basis. 

Pictured above is an example of a cycle hangar. The design can differ depending on the outcome of procurement.  

Why your views matter

We are seeking your views on conversion of the northernmost three metres (10ft) of solo visitor motorcycle bay (hours of control Monday to Friday 8.30am to 6.30pm and Saturday 8.30am to 1.30pm) to a cycle hangar bay outside the flank wall of 168 Holland Park Avenue, situated in Addison Avenue. This area will accommodate an on-street cycle hangar unit. Your comments will help us decide whether to proceed with the proposals as planned.

Occupancy of the solo visitor motorcycle bay was 12 percent on weekday afternoons in the most recent occupancy survey in September 2018.
